Gameday—BU at Merrimack

The injury-plagued Terriers are in North Andover tonight to take on the much improved Merrimack Warriors, the surprise team in Hockey East thus far. The Warriors have added some scoring punch to what may be the conference’s best one-two punch in goal with Joe Cannata and Andrew Braithwaite.

Nick Bonino is still out of the lineup and will be joined on the sidelines by David Warsofsky and Alex Chiasson. That means Ben Rosen gets his second start of the year on defense after impressing his coaches with a strong effort last Friday against Northeaster. Wade Megan who performed well at center against Maine, will be at center again tonight. Kieran Millan will be in goal for the Terriers, but Grant Rollheiser will dress for the time this season.

Lines and pairing for tonight:
Connolly-Megan-Saponari
Glass-Trivino-Gilroy
Cohen-Popko-Pereira
Courtnall-Gaudet-Santana
